Mel. The fit bit i have is the fit nit flex. Its gives ne all the data i need and is light and my choice cost 99.00 at target The other one i looked at was the newer one the the fitbit force it give you a tad more data...flights of steps & it acts as a watch. It costs 129.00 the only reason i did not spring for the extra 30 was 1. i already wear a watch everyday 2. i do not feel stairs are a big factor in my daily routine 3.you can read outactial data on the force. The flex are progressove light the mre lights the closer you are to your daily goal. I find this works better for me. 3. they recently had a recall because apparently the force has trace elements of nickle in the band and some people are alergic to nickle. But 1 & 2 were the main reasons. Hope this helps. Let me know if you want to talk email me and ill send you my cp no. walkingman180@gmail.com RJ

I'm surprised you found a force, I thought they were recalled?

I love my flex but haven't worn it in several months, due to weather and lack of walking I didn't want to see how bad I was slacking :(

Absolutely! I just can't figure it all out just yet. And I'm on vacation so I most likely won't be as active this week. (I'm at a casino) lol not a lot if moving at the slots.

Having a blast in the spa! It's great not to feel self conscious.

It really is!! We went to Wisconsin Dell's. Spent two days at a Water park in a swimsuit. Looked around and realized that only was I not the fattest one in the park, even with my saggy skin, I looked better that quite a few there. And it was WONDERFUL to actually participate and not just watch from the sidelines.

Enjoy the spa! You deserve it!!

Neither are mine! I found one with a nice skirt. J C Penney had some that were nice and I was able to get for under $50. The only thing that will fix either my upper arms or thighs will be plastic surgery! Not sure if I want to go there...

CONGRATS!!! Do you think your Mom and my Dad might be up there giving each other a 'high five' about now for their daughters success? I was just thinking this morning how proud Dad would be with what I have done this year. You know they are with us!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
